Panasonic Plasma 10 Blink

[kickrz]

Hello im new to the forum and im sure this has been asked before. I have a TH-42PD60U 8th gen panasonic plasma which just quit and is giving me the 10 blinks when i push power button. I have looked at the capacitors on the power board and they all look good. I have also checked the fuses on the board and they are also good. Has anyone else experienced this and knows what board I would have to either fix or replace? I have followed a diagram that made me test a few boards and I came up with the SC Board. Im not sure if i did it all right tho. Any help on this would be great.

Thanks all.

Caps can be bad with no visible symptoms. The only sure way is to check with capacitance and ESR meter out of circuit.

Re: Panasonic Plasma 10 Blink

would the fuses on the board not blow before the caps would?

Hi kickrz

No, caps fail without blowing fuses most of the time.
A shorted cap might blow a fuse but that's only one way a cap can fail.
